Good afternoon BiggerPockets!
I just joined the site and have decided I want to get involved in investing! We currently live in the far Northwest burbs of Chicago, An area I've read is a little tough for investing. I am in the infancy stage (or zygote stage if that exists). I don't have any potential properties lined up and am at this point just looking at different financing options, and of course doing tons of reading. Ideally, I'd like to build this into a career - Isn't financial freedom why we're all here!? SFH and/or condos seem like the way I would start, and commercial property or strip malls has appeal as well. Would love to connect and hear insights from those of you who have had success (and failures) in the Chicago market.
Cheers,
Tyler
